The only thing I asked my dad to leave me in his will was his record collection. We didn’t see eye to eye on much, but we both loved music. He would have dug you guys.

[@HillbillyHellcats]

Rich Fifield, of the Astronauts, used to fill in in my band in the 80s. He lives in a suburb of north Denver now. When I would ask him to front a tune, he would always call "If you see Kay." He always said that they considered themselves to be R&B, and did the Surf thing at the request of an A&R man from a record company who thought they needed an answer to The Beach Boys. Rich gigged in many bands around Denver after the Astronauts, but has been pretty quiet the last 10 years or so. Last I knew, he was gigging Jazz guitar and vocal duets at fraternal organizations with his girlfriend.

[@heathenwarrior2522]

I like the "Girls with Guitars" and "Girls in the Garage" comps. Those ladies paved the way for females to play rock n roll and should be recognized for their contributions. I love 60's music. Especially the garage stuff.

The album was re-released a few years ago, which I got on CD. All the songs were enhanced (re-mastered?), plus a few other songs were added. I can't remember if these songs were unreleased originally or not. You might want to check it out since it's been awhile. Oh, and I, too, discovered Tijuana Brass in my dad's record collection.

[@stvitalkid7981]

Given your connection to the GTA, you're probably familiar with this one: "Savvy Showstoppers" by Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet. That's a fun mix of surfy, spy jazzy and Spaghetti Western type sounds, with a big dash of the band's wry humour thrown in. That album also contains the anthemic track, "Having an Average Weekend," which became the theme song for "The Kids in the Hall" tv show. On another note, I was a school kid in the 1960's who loved Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. My parents used to let me stay up to watch their TV specials, which always seemed to be sponsored by Singer sewing machines.

[@saberdogface]

My mom had that Herb Albert album when I was about 8 and my older sister turned me on to Zeppelin, Hendrix, Floyd, the Beatles and the Doors. She had all the Beatles on vinyl and Zeppelin 2 , Hendrix Are you Experienced. When I heard Jimmy Page on Zeppelin 2 , I was blown away and went and bought Zeppelin 4 .

[@aljustal6554]

RCA signed Boulder, Colorado's Astronauts to compete with the Beach Boys on Capitol records. Their1963 debut mixes surf instrumentals with Beach-Boys-sounding vocal tracks and is probably their best release. They followed with a hot rod-themed LP called "Competition Coupe", further driving home the Beach Boys comparisons, then gradually tended towards LP's filled mostly with fairly mediocre sounding vocal covers of rock standards. Their RCA studio sound with a heavily-reverbed three guitar attack is pretty stellar on their biggest hit, "Baja", which the Surfragettes cover live and which you can hear here: . kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6ipeWZ-mKehbdk

Led Zeppelin was my "carry-over" album. I went to the Catholic highschool and listened to bands like The Cure and The Smiths, The Jam and The Who. I became friends with a few punk-rockers from the Art School and they exposed me to The Clash and The Dead Kennedy's. I remember a lot of rainy days that we skipped school and drove out to Komoka where my friend's parents lived and we would smoke hash from a bottle while playing Risk and listening to Led Zeppelin and some really hard core British Punk Rock. I have a question for your new videos which I, in every way, consider the most sweet and bubbly and colourful show. Your set is PERFECT!!! When I watch I get the same stable and visionary feeling that people refer to things like Tom Wolfe's novels. Solid! Do you guys still do shows? Your music has that AWESOME attribute because each one of you is a genius. Listen, and I'm quite serious.... Give me the Ok to write an epic screenplay with all tracks done by you (and sell the (your)) soundtrack as an album after the film comes out.. It's your album... Also you would obviously be paid (Bigtime) for just doing the music for the film.. I know you can play it... I know I can write it (the film)... By me trying to write to the level of your music creatively and artistically it will play out just like that. It's the same relationship that David Lynch has with his composer Angelo Badalamenti Dear Sisters I've been wanting to complete but have written very creative parts of screenplays. Thisz my first complete film I want to BE THE LITERAL LOS ANGELES movie. More Spike Lee than Tarantino. Tarantino is getting too much credit I think. Just because he played Miserlou as the Intro to Pulp Fiction everybody associated the movie with that Los Angeles "Miserlou" surf type of feeling. The movie itself really wasn't! Or not much... My brother Nelson Ferreira IMDb was a nominee himself for an Oscar about 4 years ago for his sound-editing on the film The Shape of Water.. I'm telling you guys again...

Your version of Banzai Pipeline is the best version out there. You really payed attention to detail on that one with the finger snaps and percussion.
